Top Priorities if Elected |
- Return direction of the city to the elected council, not the city manager
- Have an open government informing the residents of city issues
- Be independent of special interests by conducting a clean money campaign
|
|
- Nancy Johnson
- Toru Miyoshi
- Muriel Robinison
|
|
- Take back the city
-
The city council hires only the city manager and city attorney. The council follows the direction of the manager and staff. There is a need for more leadership on the council. I will speak out, ask questions and provide new energy to the council.
- We need a more open city government
-
Residents are not being fully informed about issues in the city.
- Clean money campaign for a conflict-free elected official
-
By NOT accepting money and endorsements from businesses, groups, unions, or political parties I will be free of conflicts of interest.
